Respuesta :
For the function f ( x ) = x² we have the new function f 1 ( x ) = 1/2 x².f ( x ) = a · x²- If |a| < 1 the graph is compressed vertically by a factor of a.- If |a| > 1 the graph is stretched vertically by a factor of a.Here: a = 1/2 < 1
Answer:C. The graph will be compressed vertically.
Answer:C. The graph will be compressed vertically.
Answer: The graph of f(x) would shrink vertically by [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}\ units[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
[tex]f(x)=x^2[/tex]
We need to multiply f(x) by [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
Let f(x) = y.
We have two conditions :
y=kf(x)
if k>1, then it tends to vertical stretch.
if k<1, then it tends to vertical shrink.
Since we have given that we have to multiply [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] with f(x) as [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}<1[/tex]
so, it tends to vertical shrink, and it move closer to x-axis which make the graph flatter.
Hence, the graph of f(x) would shrink vertically by [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}\ units[/tex].
